Contrast between the Movie and Book Version of “Animal Farm” I always think the book is better than the movie‚ and Animal Farm is no exception. One reason is that I form pictures in my mind as I read‚ and I imagine what each of the characters must look like and where they live as they live out their stories. That’s especially true in a novel in which the primary characters are animals. Seeing it come to life in a cartoonish movie was rather difficult‚ though I did enjoy several characterizations

Book vs. Movie Some people say that the movie is better than the book but is it really? In this argument I will discuss how the book is better than the movie. In this case the book “The Lightning Thief” is better than the movie because the book includes all fun and exciting scenes that help and make you use your imagination a lot more than the movie itself. The movie excludes characters that are important and some that are but‚ either way characters make the movie happen so they should be included

different from Samuel Spade of “The Maltese Falcon” motion picture. The book was written a good decade before that version of the movie was produced and in a much more casual time period. The novel focuses on making Sam out to be a more complex character than the movie does. He is not just “the good guy” as he is portrayed more so in the movie. The time period may have had a lot to do with the differences between the 1941 movie and the book‚ published in 1929. The first thing to consider is that the late

In The Invention of Hugo Cabret vs. Hugo‚ the element of character relationships in the book and the movie are developed very differently. One example of this would be the addition of completely new characters in the movie that were not in the book at all. The director‚ Martin Scorsese‚ creates new characters‚ which add and build upon the relationships and add side stories to the plot line. Instead of cutting some of the plot as adaptations usually do‚ the film actually added additional story

for what is still to come. This sense of hopelessness and this view of the future is very well pictured in the novel and the movie: The Children of Men.

Do you prefer reading or watching the book Wonder? I would rather watch because‚ I am a visual learner. The movie has a better idea of expressing how the characters feel such as Auggie‚ Jack‚ Julian‚ and Summer. In my opinion‚ the movie has more creativity other than the book‚ where it adds non-sense. The movie shows us a visual picture of Auggie’s life and how hard it was for him. The book tells us the events that happen but‚ doesn’t show us. In the movie Wonder‚ Auggie and Jack got into a fight
